      How Big Should Your USDOT Number Sticker Decal (Vinyl Lettering) Be? |A Must Read

      example of different usdot number sizes

      USDOT number lettering needs to be at least 2 inches in height and must be visible from a distance of 50 feet during the day. USDOT and other regulation numbers can be larger. It is recommended to display all of your important lettering at a height of 3” inches just to be safe, especially if you plan to cross state lines. The term “big is better” is applicable in this instance.

      Example: You are a trucker from Kansas and you are delivering a load to New York City. In the state of Kansas the minimum size requirement for lettering is 2 inches but in New York City, the minimum is 3 inch lettering. If you are stopped in New York City for having lettering under 3 inches you will get a fine. So, this is why we recommend a lettering size of 3 inches to cover all grounds. Some counties or cities have different rules and regulations that the FMCSA.

      In both examples below, you can see the size difference between 2 inch, 2.5 inch, 3 inch and 3.5 USDOT number lettering.

      If you have any questions, one of our customer service representatives would be happy to help you.

      Hey Trucker, Keep Your Regulation Numbers Up To Date | Don't Get Caught Riding Dirty

      keep your usdot numbers up to date

      We hear it all of the time, “The POPO ain’t gonna mess with my DOT numbers if I display them on cardboard” which translates to “The Police (DOT) is not going to tell me anything if my regulation numbers (USDOT) are not displayed correctly”.

      One of the first things a commercial vehicle inspector looks at is your regulation numbers such as your USDOT, MC, GVW, KYU, CA, VIN or whatever number is applicable to your type of business and/or state. Truck scales or weight stations now have the ability to read all of the numbers you choose to display outside of your commercial vehicle. These advanced cameras and sensors will pick up the lettering and transmit it to the scale house authority. If your lettering is difficult to read, the chances of you getting audited or pulled over increase substantially.

      Not only does professional lettering look good, but it leaves a good impression on business partners and the public. Spend the few extra bucks and get it done right the first time.

      If you have any questions, our dedicated staff would be more than happy to assist.
